Mine on Monday: My Little Man

Just yesterday I got an email from the mom of one of the seniors I'm going to be photographing this week, all about how she can't believe how fast her little boy has grown up. Hopefully she'll forgive me for quoting her email on my blog. But her words really touched me. She wrote, "I still remember him chubby, toothless, and bald. I was his hero then, he needed me for everything. It’s hard when they stop 'needing' you so much. Although I am pleased with the man he is becoming."

Such a good reminder to focus on the fun stage I am in with my boys. So today's "Mine on Monday" post is dedicated to my littlest little Man, known as "T" or "TD" around here.

He is:
*As chock-full of energy as a three-year-old can be.
*Full of smiles and hugs and kisses.
*So excited and ready to start pre-school in just a couple of weeks. He is definitely ready to go and practices writing his name almost daily.
*Completely particular about the order that his blankets are laid on him each night. First the white one ~ fuzzy side down, then the green one, then the sports one. So particular, in fact, that he makes an almost ritualistic trip into my room every morning around 3:00 a.m. to tell me his blankets got messed up.
*Sings "You Are So Beautiful" to me almost every day. And yes, I love it!!
*Just got his second haircut of his life. Probably didn't even need it, but his big brother was getting his hair cut, so it was the thing to do. He has been sooo slow to grow hair!
*Is {almost always} as sweet as sweet can be.

Isn't he a cutie-patootie?
